    This is by far the best defiant I’ve ever seen on this site, it’s the same shape as the real one, it flies twice as fast as my Blackhawk, love that realism! 10/10 for me.

    The only problem is the blade themselves. What did you do that made this heli spin clockwise slowly? I tried to tweak it but I couldn't find the real issue
